From the desk of CEO ‘’Time & Tide Wait for None”. Now a new word “Technology” needs to be added to this old proverb & to be read as under: “Technology, Time & Tide Wait for None”. This means that TECHNOLOGY cannot wait for you to accept it. It has been transforming every day, every hour & every minute. If we do not keep ourselves updated with these very changes, we’ll soon become obsolete, irrelevant & outdated. Technology, in recent times, has changed our style of living, speed of thinking, way of looking at things including our life & also doing the things without being in trauma of “Time & Space”. What we saw yesterday is not there today & what we see today will not be there tomorrow. Have a look around & you will find that the TECHNOLOGY has become DISRUPTIVE, which means that it regularly disrupts & displaces established market, leading firms, products and alliances & creates a new market and value network thereby transforming life, business & global economy. Companies like apple, uber, airbnb, flipkart, oyo etc. are excellent examples of such disruptions. BIG became SMALL, then MINIATURES & now MINISCULE. Crawled from KB, walked up to MB and ran very fast to GB & TB and now on PB. Computing from MAIN FRAME (usually occupied a room of space), to MID FRAME & then to MINI & now powerful devices on Laps & in Hands. Intranet to Internet & now on Clouds! Go on & you will find this list unending. Now one cannot think becoming a TECHNOLOGY WIZARD after doing some Post Graduation or Doctorate. He has to be very much on his toes & has to be alert & vigilant to keep a track of innovation, creativity & vision. He needs to think & look beyond the HORIZON!!! This is true not only for individuals like us but also for Software Companies, Business Houses, Educational Institutes etc. &, of course, the ‘NATION”. Now is the time not to see the things happening but making the things happen. You cannot sit at rest……………. Lets make CR2 a major disruptor in the knowledge world. Wish you all the best!!!

Knowledge Sharing ElasticSearch
ElasticSearch is a fast growing technology built on Lucene. The main scope of ElasticSearch is to be a search engine. It also provides a lot of features that allow you to use it for data storage and data analysis. ElasticSearch has many innovative
features
like:
JSON/REST-based
api
and
natively distributed in a node/cluster. ElasticSearch can be set up on a physical or virtual server depending on RAM, CPU and disk space.
TERMS TO UNDERSTAND: Node • Each instance we install on physical or virtual server is known as a node. • Combination of node creates cluster. • On node startup, the node searches for other cluster members and checks its index and shard status. • Node configuration can be done through elasticsearch.yml • Replication of node can be done using master node and secondary nodes. • If master node dies, a master-eligible node is elected to be the new master node. Index (plural Indices) • Index is main data container in node.
The following scheme compares ElasticSearch structure with SQL and MongoDB: There are 2 basic types of augmented reality depending on the identification of the object or view scene. 1. Marker-based AR It uses a camera and a visual marker baked into the content that a marketer wants to present. The viewer holds up the content to the camera to see the AR in action. Basically this type of AR is capable to identify 2d images, bar-codes. Marker-based AR is the most prevalent and easiest to accomplish. ElasticSearch

Record (Tuples)
Record(BSON Object)
----------------------------------------------------------
Mapping/type • In an index, data is grouped into data types called mappings.
Field • A mapping describes how the records are composed called field.
Document • Every record must be stored as a json object.
Shard • To manage huge volume of records, it splits an index into multiple shards. • Every record is stored in a shard. It’s algorithm is based on record ID. • So to update any record, it hits only shard that contains your object.

NOW, WE’LL GO THROUGH BASIC EXAMPLE OF BOOK LIBRARY
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------HOW TO INTEGRATE WITH PHP? By using curl, you can use ElasticSearch with your favorite programming language. Here is the example of simple curl request with ElasticSearch

Management Story A group of employees was working in a software company. It was a team of 30 employees. This was a young, energetic and dynamic team with keen enthusiasm and desire to learn and grow. The management decided to teach the employees about finding real solution to the problems. The team was called to play a game in a banquet hall. The group was quite surprised as they were called for playing game. All reached the venue holding various thoughts. As they entered the hall, they found the hall decorated beautifully with colorful decorative papers and balloons all over the place. It was more like a kid’s play area, than a corporate meeting hall. Everyone was surprised and looked at each other. Also, there was a huge box of balloons placed at the center of the hall. The team leader asked everyone to pick a balloon from the box and asked them to blow it. Every one happily picked a balloon and blew it. Then the team leader asked them to write their names on their balloon, carefully so that the balloons didn’t blow up. All tried to write their names on the balloons, but not everyone was successful. A few balloons blew up due to pressure and they were given another chance to use another balloon .Those who failed to mark their names even after the second chance were ruled out of the game. After the second chance, 25 employees were qualified for the next level. All the balloons were collected and then put into a room. The team leader announced the employees to go to the room and pick the same balloon that had his name on it. Also, he told them that no balloon should blow up and warned them to be very careful! All 25 employees reached the room, where the balloons carrying their names were thrown here and there. The time limit was just 15 minutes for this exercise. They were searching for the respective balloons carrying their names. While they were in a rush to find the respective balloons, they tried not to burst the balloons. It was almost 15 minutes and no one was able to find the balloon carrying his own name. The team was told that the second level of the game was over. Now it is the third and final level. They asked the employees to pick any balloon in the room and give it to the person named on the balloon. Within a couple of minutes all balloons reached the hands of the respective employee and everyone reached the hall. The team leader announced; this is called team work & real solutions to the problems. Everyone is frantically hunting for solutions to the problems without understanding the ideal ways. Moral: Many times, sharing and helping others give you real solutions to all problems. Help out each other to ease things. - Contributed by Sanskruti Purohit
01. Venus is the only planet in the solar system that rotates clockwise, whereas all other planets rotate anti-clock wise. 02. In space, astronauts cannot cry because there is no gravity and tears can't flow. 03. Kangaroos cannot walk backwards! 04. 80 percent of vanilla flavored food (including the ice cream and essence) is made artificially, because natural vanilla beans are very expensive. 05.

Hands and feet have more than half of the bones in the human body. 08. A bear has 42 teeth 09. Just like humans fingerprints, Dogs nose prints are unique, and it can be used to identify the identity of dogs. 10. You cannot talk and inhale or vice versa. When you speak, you will not be able to inhale. Give it a try?

Entertainment Zone Welcome to back to school puzzle. Go back to your school time and find the relevant words.
Winners of the quiz will be announced in next issue.
• Continue drinking plenty of water in this season as it is important to keep your body hydrated every time. • Avoid eating outside food specially Pakodas, Bhel, Panipuri, Vadapav, etc. Eating such foods increases the chances of contamination and illness during the monsoon. • Use a powerful insect repellent to hold mosquitoes away and prevent getting bitten. It’s furthermore good concept to take anti-malarial drug during this monsoon. • Where likely, try to avoid walking through rainy water. It can lead to numerous fungal diseases of the feet and heels. • Use Herbs & Spices regularly. Herbs help in improving immunity during rainy season. Herbs such as Tulsi, Lemongrass, Mint, Ginger, Turmeric, and Garlic can be used in monsoon on daily basis.
